Objective: To analyze the effect of a cyclic fertilin-derived peptide (cFEE) on in vitro maturation of human oocytes.
Design: Randomized study.
Setting: Fertility center in an academic hospital.

Thereby, dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) is usually preferred. No randomized study has evaluated nonvitamin K antagonist oral anticoagulant after LAAC, and we decided to evaluate the efficacy and safety of reduced doses of rivaroxaban after LAAC.
